We’re Focused on Healing

Sexual abuse occurs in many forms and affects many types of victims. Consequently, sex abuse claims are extremely varied; parents may bring a claim on behalf of a child, or adults may file a claim relating to sexual abuse they endured during childhood. No matter the details, sexual abuse claims are extremely sensitive in nature and require the attention of experienced attorneys.

Our sexual abuse attorneys have successfully handled rape and sexual abuse claims all over the United States. We are dedicated to helping victims and bringing those responsible for the abuse to justice. Our commitment to this cause even extends outside of our practice. For example, our Founding Partner, Jeff Herman, is a community advocate and works with several organizations dedicated to the prevention of childhood sexual abuse through education.
